An exceptional, museum-grade historical collection of vintage postage stamps from the Western Ukrainian People's Republic (ZUNR / WUPR), representing the legendary 1919 "Vienna Unissued" definitive series.
This complete philatelic layout is outstanding for its pristine format, showcasing five authentic multi-stamp blocks (composed of quarter blocks of 4 stamps, covering the series from the lowest values to the highest denominations). The fine-line artistic engravings beautifully depict the historic state emblem—the West Ukrainian/Galician Lion on a shield surrounded by a classic banner and ornamental frames. The set captures both standard perforated (1 Korona and 10 Koron) and highly sought-after imperforate (unperforated 10, 20, and 50 Sotykiv) variants with excellent color preservation. All stamps are in premium unused Mint Hinged (MH) condition with full original character and no cancellation marks.
Features:
- Set of 20 vintage stamps (meticulously composed of 5 pristine quarter blocks of 4)
- Authentic 1919 Western Ukrainian People's Republic (ZUNR / ZOUНР) Vienna printing
- Issued during the post-WWI independence struggle, Western Ukraine border transitions, and the Polish-Ukrainian War
- Features iconic regional heraldry: Galician Coat of Arms (Galician Lion) and traditional typography
- Showcases both official perforated high values and classic imperforate wide-margin sheets
- Mint Hinged (MH) condition (unused, clean mint condition without postmarks or ink damage)
The set includes blocks of the following complete denominations from the historic 1919 series:
- 10, 20, 50 Sotykiv (сотиків), as well as 1 Korona (корона) and 10 Koron (корон).
A fascinating collectible for:
- Ukrainian philately, ZUNR/UPR specialized experts, and Eastern European regional postal history scholars
- worldwide collectors focused on rare unissued variants, multi-stamp blocks, and revolutionary military history
- Western Ukraine, Lviv, Galicia, and regional independence movement buffs

The stamps are photographed in detail so collectors can carefully examine the condition, perforation alignment, ample margins of the imperforate sheets, and sharp details included in the set.
You will receive the exact collection shown in the photos.
